Here, we analyzed DNA films immobilized onto gold film electrodes containing single base pair mismatches and covalently attached methylene blue (MB) by means of cyclic (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and determined the rate constant for the electron transfer reaction between MB moiety and electrode for different types of mismatches. ©2007 IEEE.en610conference paper
